Wow! Could this really be true? 3 great modular layouts at April York!!!
1. The National Capital Trackers in the Black Hall.
2. The Fort Pitt HiRailers in the White Hall.
3. The Lower Susquehanna Valley Model Railroaders in the Orange Hall.
This is fantastic news! I know how much work it takes to bring our modular layout to local venues.....I want to express my appreciation to the the 3 groups in advance......It takes a lot of hard work and planning. Thank you so much!

And certainly don't forget to also check out Joey Ricard's dynamite Spruce Coal & Timer layout (On30) in the Orange Hall. If you saw our Feb./March issue, you'll know what I mean. This marks Joey's first appearance at the York Meet.
Chuga Chuga Woo Woo!!!! All right smoke em if ya got em!!!
That is terrific news. Always a nice break from the "hunt" to relax and admire the layouts that are show cased at York. This year sounds exceptional.
Thank you to the clubs that take the time and expense to share with us all.

The camel has gotten it's nose under the tent, it's no longer a Meet, it's a Show!
Can't wait to see all of the Pictures!! 
Unfortunately, that means that fewer dealers and other sellers are attending...

Not quite...it has a LONG way to go before it would merit that change in designation (which, given the primary purpose of this distinctive event, would not be a positive thing).
What is does mean, though, is that it is time for the Eastern Div. honchos to seriously re-think the no cameras rule so participants can benefit from the fine modeling displayed by these groups and individuals.
Allan......I agree.......a lot of great modeling ideas are lost......pictures could reverse that...

Well hopefully more and more layouts keep showing up. After the Orange, Purple and Brown has been gone through its good to have something to look at
That is good news!! In the past when I've seen an interested scene on a modular layout at York I've asked a club member to email me pics of the scene. They are always eager to discuss any aspect of the scene and I've always received the requested pics in due time. It's just my way around the no pic rule.

2 layouts in the Orange Hall???? After having space allotted to Atlas, MTH, Lionel, Williams for theirs (and some I'm forgetting), where are these layouts going?? I'm picturing the "off-shoot" rooms in the back???

If you check out Joey's web site you will see his layout is smaller than either the MTH or Lionel demo layout. Fantastic layout but it won't fill the Black Hall.

I think you may be correct. One of the "side rooms" on the left has been a bit sparce the past 2 meets.

After looking at the Orange Hall map, this is in fact is the area that will used for the layouts I believe.

Joey's "Trackside Scenery" booth is AA-3 (check the thread for Hall Charts--it's in the Orange Hall). We're not talking about a large layout here, but we are talking about a gorgeous one.
Other layouts in that hall include Lionel, MTH, Williams/Bachmann, and Atlas--all in their customary locations. Scenic Express also generally has a dynamite On30 pike on display. None of these layouts displace dealer/seller space since most are relatively compact or very compact.
Oops! Left out Lower Susquehanna Valley modular group (see Chris's post below).
Yup!
